In Memory and Gifts in Honor

Contribute to AnimalKind and the mission to end pet overpopulation and shelter euthanasia in memory of a special person or beloved pet, or mark a special occasion for a family member or friend (i.e. birthdays, anniversaries) with a gift in celebration.

Make your special gift with a note referencing the person for whom the gift is honoring, memorializing, or celebrating. An AnimalKind team member will then mail a card to you, or to the person you’ve designated stating that a donation has been made on their behalf.

Encourage your family and friends to contribute to AnimalKind in lieu of gifts or flowers when it’s time to recognize the important moments in your life.

A gift to AnimalKind is a gift of life and an end to pet over-crowding and shelter euthanasia.

AnimalKind is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Raleigh, NC. Our mission is to end the unnecessary euthanasia of adoptable cats and dogs in North Carolina Shelters.

Our organization and programs grew out of a national need to address the overpopulation of adoptable cats and dogs in our shelters. Currently millions of sheltered animals are euthanized in the US on a yearly basis, just to make room for more, and thousands of those occur in North Carolina.
